Husqvarna (Hold, TP: SEK113.00) - Solid finish to a strong year

Husqvarna achieved an EBIT adj. margin of 10.7%, 6% organic growth YOY excl. exits of Consumer Brands business and 24.4% operating working capital/sales in 2020, all better than its targets and confirming it is heading in the right direction and, structurally, has improved significantly. Although we see the improvement journey continuing, we also see 2021 as a year with no earnings growth due to several external headwinds. We therefore reiterate our HOLD and SEK113 target price.
